Use Firefox with Adblock and SponsorBlock. Chrome does its level best to block the ad blockers, whereas Firefox is built for privacy.

I would maybe use Ublock extension or use Brave or Opera browser.

No ads on The Student Room or YouTube or any other website for me on Brave.

No ads for me on laptop with Ublock origin on Edge or when I (rarely) use Opera.

No extensions needed when using Brave (at least on mobile, haven’t used computer) to block ads (includes YouTube ads), it’s built into the browser.

yeah i second this, the Brave browser is great - no ads for me on youtube, spotify web, tsr or any other sites i use! you can get it on mobile too btw

and like the user above also mentioned, no extensions required on mobile or desktop, just the browser :smile:
